Did you know that each school has a written Parent Engagement Plan?
It should be developed and reviewed each year jointly with parents/families to establish meaningful parent and family engagement with schools. This plan includes things like surveys, newsletters, and family engagement activities. It is distributed to families in the Fall of each school year.
